Extrude and measure without complex setting up
To measure extruded plastic pipe, tube and cable products wall thickness, previous systems required complicated set-up for each product,but now a user can start up plant and measure immediately.
Profiles pass through the multi-camera gauge head where they are measured by a non-contact laser/camera system.
The PC-based graphical user interface simplifies the input of part specifications, drawings, and tolerances while providing instant recall of multiple products via recipe selection.
The ProfileScan 4000 can be combined with the DataPro 5000 which provides the enhanced SPC, trending and reporting you have come to expect from the Beta LaserMike DataPro products.
By adding the ProfileScan 2000 control system directly to the die head, a complete profile solution capable of high speed, instantaneous control, and precision in-process measurements allows you to take real control of the entire profile extrusion process.
Beta LaserMike is a global organization committed to innovate, design, manufacture, and service precision measurement and control systems for the wire and cable, fiber optic, pipe/profile/tube, primary metals, non-woven and dimensional metrology markets.
